Evaluation of the USAID/Mali component of the family planning logistics management (FPLM) project
Sign inBASIC HEALTH MANAGEMENT INTERNATIONAL (BHM)
The Family Planning Logistics Management buy-in in Mali has, since its start in March 1993, made considerable achievements in developing the logistics management information system; training field personnel (region and district) in family planning (FP) logistics management; tracking contraceptive procurement and supplies through management of the contraceptive procurement tables (CPTs); coordinating with other FP programs and donor agencies; and assessing the storage and distribution (including transportation) needs of the current program, and its future expansion.

Abstract
As a consequence of the above, there is an observed improvement in FP logistics management skills and, in most cases, stock levels of the most-used contraceptives, at least down to the district level. The program is therefore perceived to be making a significant contribution to the overall objective of the national family planning program to make contraceptives of the right type and quality always available to existing and potential FP acceptors. However, there are indications that there are some weaknesses in the current system that still need attention during the life of the current buy-in and beyond. (Author abstract)
